COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL, THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COMMITTEE AND THE COMMITTEE OF THE REGIONS
Thursday 15 June 2017 Commission EuropéenneThe Commission’s top priority is to strengthen the EU economy
and stimulate investment to create jobs.
To strengthen investment for the long term, we need stronger
capital markets. These markets need to provide new sources of
corporate financing and help increase investment options, unlocking
the concrete benefits of the Single Market for EU businesses and
households. EU businesses, from start-ups and scale-ups to
well-established multinationals, need access to a wide range of
funding sources, to invest in innovation and company expansion.
Households need access to capital markets, to have more and better
opportunities to invest for their future.
